Case Study: Sampan Bath Stylised

Despite not being renowned for
its use with water, wood is fast becoming one of the favourite materials for
use in a bathroom. Wood can do wonders for your bathroom, and not just on the
floor! It can add warmth & depth and soften the harshness associated with
ceramic tiling used in lots of bathrooms.

Our Sampan bath was recently
featured in a bathroom design magazine showcased in a clients’ bathroom, where
we discussed the teak cladding and the use of copper within the bath. The teak
contrasted well with the copper, which was carried across into the bathroom
accessories, namely the towel rail and the taps, adding a modern twist on what
would be a very traditional bathroom.

The wallpaper was another
favourite! It is so unusual to see a textured wall in a bathroom, due to its
ability to make a room look slightly smaller, but the textures here matched
perfectly with the teak, and added extra warmth that may have been taken away
by the large-format tiling.

The fur rug was added to help
soften out the entire look, as well as adding to the luxury of the bathroom,
making for a spectacular bathing experience!
